Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to a system and method for extending credit, and more specifically to a system and method for extending a location-based offer of credit to a prospective borrower upon determining the prospective borrower's location.
  • a consumer requests a credit line from a lender.
  • the consumer then completes extensive paperwork for the lender.
  • This paperwork includes personal information, such as name, address, and tax identification information.
  • the paperwork may also include financial information, such as bank account information, prior borrowing information, and employment information.
  • the lender analyzes this and other data to determine whether a consumer is credit worthy. Where this is the case, the consumer receives a predetermined credit amount, such as $10,000. The consumer may then spend this money as needed, perhaps by check or credit card.
  • the problem with the conventional system is twofold: First, the consumer must apply for this credit in advance. The consumer must submit the requisite paperwork to the lender. The approval process takes a period of several days to several weeks. As such, the consumer must apply for credit long before actual needs for goods and services arise.
  • the consumer in conventional systems is generally given general lines of credit far in excess of need. For instance, if the consumer wants a credit card for traveling, the consumer may only require $1000 to $2000 for any one trip. However, the lender may issue the consumer a card for $10,000 or $20,000. This excess of need is problematic for two reasons. First, if the spending mechanism—the credit card or check book—is lost, fraudulent charges may be excessive, thereby increasing the overall cost of credit. Next, if a consumer needs different types of credit, for example a first line for travel and a second line for home renovations, a second lender may be reluctant to lend when a first, large credit line is already in place.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates one embodiment of a system for extending credit in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates one embodiment of a system for extending credit in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates one embodiment of a method for extending credit in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates one embodiment of a method for encouraging the use of credit in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 5 illustrates one embodiment of a method for encouraging the use of credit in accordance with the invention.
  • embodiments of the invention described herein may be comprised of one or more conventional processors and unique stored program instructions that control the one or more processors to implement, in conjunction with certain non-processor circuits, some, most, or all of the functions of extending credit as described herein.
  • the non-processor circuits may include, but are not limited to, a radio receiver, a radio transmitter, signal drivers, clock circuits, power source circuits, data bases and user input devices. As such, these functions may be interpreted as steps of a method to perform credit offering. Thus, methods and means for these functions have been described herein.
  • Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and system of extending a location based offer of credit to a prospective borrower.
  • a lender Upon determining the location of the prospective borrower, a lender is able to transmit offers of credit to the prospective borrower.
  • the offers of credit maybe customized or otherwise tailored to correspond to the prospective borrower's location. For instance, when a prospective borrower is in a particular store, and has made purchases there before, the lender may choose to transmit an offer of credit suitable for use in that store to purchase accessories to go with the previous purchase.
  • the lender may, upon determining the borrower's location and purchase history, transmit an offer of credit for speakers to go with the stereo.
  • the lender may use the system and method to reward the consumer for prompt payment on an existing credit account.
  • the lender may determine from a credit history that the borrower makes regular payments on the account. The lender may then, upon determining the borrower's location, transmit an offer for an additional amount of credit to the borrower.
  • the lender may employ the system and method to allow the borrower to complete a purchase.
  • the lender may determine location by detecting a credit rejection. If the lender determines that the borrower is credit worthy, the lender may extend an offer of credit to the borrower in an amount sufficient to cover the tenth item.
  • insufficient funds may occur when the borrower has sufficient funds, yet the funds are “earmarked” for specific purchases. For instance, the borrower may have sufficient funds to purchase all ten items. However, if the ten items are discretionary, and some of the borrower's funds are earmarked for necessity purchases such as food and rent, the borrower may have insufficient funds for the ten items even though he has funds in excess of the ten-item purchase list.
  • the borrower may submit a “wish list” of goods and services.
  • the wish list may include pots, pans, cutlery, and serving dishes.
  • the lender may extend an offer of credit for one of the wish list items where the borrower's location is in close proximity to a wish list item.
  • the lender may transmit a location specific offer of credit to the borrower for a new, forged, 8-inch chef's knife.
  • the system 100 includes a prospective borrower locator 102 configured to determine a prospective borrower location 103 .
  • the prospective borrower locator 102 may take many forms.
  • the prospective borrower locator 102 is a radio-frequency device capable of determining the prospective borrower location 103 by detecting the presence of an electronic device, such as a mobile telephone or personal digital assistant.
  • the prospective borrower locator 102 is an electronic device that detects the presence of an electronically identifiable identifier, such as a radio-frequency identification device.
  • the prospective borrower locator 102 operates in conjunction with a global positioning system 128 or assisted global positioning system to determine the prospective borrower location 103 by detecting a global positioning device disposed on the borrower's person and transmitting the prospective borrower location back to a lender 131 through a network 127 .
  • the prospective borrower locator 102 comprises a mobile telephone network comprising a plurality of nodes or towers capable of detecting a prospective borrower location by triangulating a mobile telephone associated with the prospective borrower 101 .
  • the step of determining the prospective borrower location 103 may include any of triangulating a mobile telephone, receiving radio frequency identification information, accessing electronically determined geographic coordinates associated with the prospective borrower 101 , detecting a geographic location of a two-way communication device, or other equivalent means and systems.
  • the two-way communication device may be any of a mobile telephone, a portable computer, a personal digital assistant, or other equivalent devices.
  • the prospective borrower locator comprises a transaction detection device 116 configured to detect a borrower transaction 117 .
  • a transaction detection device 116 configured to detect a borrower transaction 117 .
  • a credit card terminal When a consumer “swipes” his credit card through the terminal, information from the credit card is routed to various entities. In one embodiment of the invention, this information is also routed to the lender 131 , thereby notifying the lender of the prospective borrower location 103 .
  • the prospective borrower transaction 117 may be a purchase transaction for goods or services.
  • the prospective borrower locator 102 comprises a smart card reader 119 configured to detect the local presence of a smart card 118 .
  • the smart card reader 119 is then coupled to a network 127 through which the prospective borrower location 103 is transmitted to the lender 131 .
  • the lender 131 employs a credit module 104 to determine the borrower's credit worthiness.
  • the credit module 104 comprises a software program operating on a computer, server, or mainframe.
  • the software program is structured to consider information relating to the borrower 101 , including personal information, financial information, and other information, to determine whether the borrower 101 is credit worthy.
  • credit worthiness refers to both a willingness and ability to pay for a good or service. As such, credit worthiness may include an amount of available or discretionary funds, combined with the borrower's desire to make a particular purchase.
  • the credit module 104 may determine credit worthiness in a variety of ways. Where the borrower 101 has an existing relationship with the lender 131 , the credit module 104 may consider past transaction history, including but not limited to number of transactions, average amount of prior transactions, payments made, payments missed, average balance, and annual percentage rate. The credit module 104 may also consider other information, including bank account information. The bank account information may include average daily balance, number of deposits made, average amount of deposits made, number of withdrawals, made, average amount of withdrawals made, and the like. The credit module 104 may further consider credit information such as credit score or credit history. In one embodiment, the credit worthiness includes an available amount of funds 112 with which the prospective borrower 101 may make purchases.
  • a purchase module 105 which may also be software operating on a computer, is configured to determine consumer information about the prospective borrower 101 .
  • the consumer information may include a purchasing history of one or more purchased goods or services.
  • the consumer information may also include a purchase location corresponding to each of the purchases goods or services. For instance, the consumer information may include which good or service was purchased at each store, and so forth.
  • the consumer information may include a borrower wish list 113 that comprises one or more desired or needed goods or services that the borrower 101 wishes or needs to purchase.
  • the borrower wish list 113 may include pots, pans, cutlery, and serving dishes.
  • the borrower wish list 113 is delivered to the lender 131 through a website 129 on a personal computer.
  • the borrower perhaps in conjunction with an existing credit account, logs onto the website 129 and enters the borrower wish list 113 .
  • the lender 131 then receives the borrower wish list 113 through the network 127 and stores the borrower wish list 113 in a server or data base for accessing upon determining the borrower location 103 .
  • the lender 131 is able to determine if the borrower 101 is within a purchasing proximity 115 of the desired goods or services 114 . Where this is the case, the lender 131 may decide to transmit a location-based offer of credit 107 to the borrower 101 for the desired goods or services 114 .
  • a credit-offering device 106 then transmits the offer of credit 107 to the prospective borrower 101 based upon the borrower location 103 , credit worthiness, and consumer information.
  • the offer of credit 107 can include a credit line increase, a short-term loan, an installment loan, or any other financial transaction that enables one to pay.
  • the offer of credit 107 is location specific, and includes location based terms 120 . These location based terms 120 may state that the offer of credit 107 is only available for the borrower's present location.

  • the lender may optionally obtain a borrower wish list of desired goods and services.
  • This borrower wish list which may be obtained from a web page to which the borrower logs in, includes a list of desired goods and services.
  • the lender determines a prospective borrower location of the prospective borrower. As set forth above, this may be done in a variety of ways, including detecting an electronic device on the person of the borrower, detecting a radio-frequency identification tag, detecting a smart card, or detecting a borrower transaction, such as a credit card swipe.
  • the prospective borrower location will be known with specificity. For example, where a given retail store places monitors or other devices at locations within the store, to detect the location of shopping carts for instance, the lender may be able to determine that the prospective borrower is at a particular location within a retail store. The lender may have knowledge, for example, of which aisle the borrower is in, and what goods or services are offered in that aisle. In such a situation, the prospective borrower location corresponds to at least one category of goods or services located within that store.
  • the prospective borrower location may also indicate a relative proximity to one or more goods or services at a particular location.
  • the step of extending credit set forth below may include an offer to purchase the goods or services that are available at the borrower's location.
  • the lender references the borrower wish list upon determining the prospective borrower location to determine whether the borrower is within a purchasing proximity to any of the desired goods and services.
  • the borrower consults a purchasing history associated with the borrower to determine what purchases have been made in the past. Based upon the purchase history and purchasing proximity, the lender may optionally select at least one good or service from the one or more desired goods or services on the borrower wish list. Where this step is employed, the step of extending an offer of credit, which is set forth below, includes extending the offer to purchase the selected good or service.
  • the lender may optionally access a location inventory database corresponding to the prospective borrower's location at step 305 . For example, if the borrower is determined to be in a sporting goods store, the lender may access an inventory database associated with that store.
  • the lender may compare the location inventory database to the purchase history at step 306 , for example to determine whether there are complementary items at the store.
  • the lender may select a proposed good or service at step 307 , be it complementary or not, and transmit an offer of credit for the proposed good or service, as will be described below.
  • the lender determines the credit worthiness of the borrower.
  • the step of extending the offer of credit occurs only where the credit worthiness of the prospective borrower indicates that the prospective borrower has insufficient available funds with which to purchase a good or service, as determined at decision 310 .
  • the credit offer is sent regardless of available funds, for example to reward the borrower for many on-time payments.
  • the step 309 of determining credit worthiness of the prospective borrower includes detecting a credit rejection for the purchase of one or more goods or services.
  • a lender may elect to transmit an offer of credit upon the prospective borrower being rejected for a sale transaction. In such a case, the lender may extend an offer of credit that is sufficient to complete the purchase of goods and services.
  • the lender extends an offer of credit to the prospective borrower based upon the borrower location.
  • the offer of credit may be extended electronically, for example by electronic mail, telephone call, text message, multimedia message, fax transmission or other suitable means.
  • the offer of credit is delivered to the borrower at a point of sale, and provides funds available for immediate use.
  • the lender receives a response from the borrower indicating whether the borrower will accept the offer of credit.
  • the response may be received in a fashion similar to the offer, which may include electronic mail, telephone call, text message, multimedia message, fax message, and the like.
  • the lender may approve an amount of credit to be extended.
  • the borrower will be pre-approved prior to the extension of the offer of credit.
  • the lender will withhold approval until after the borrower has indicated a willingness to accept the offer. In such a scenario, the lender approves a credit amount at step 314 .
  • the lender credits an account accessible by the prospective borrower for the extended fund amount. This step provides funds that are immediately available to the borrower. Such availability is useful when the borrower is, for example, at a point of sale attempting to make a purchase.
  • FIG. 4 illustrated therein is a method 400 for encouraging use of existing credit, suitable for situations where the prospective borrower already has an existing account or relationship with the lender.
  • the method 400 may be used by the lender to encourage the borrower to opt for the lender's credit account over other payment options.
  • the lender determines a prospective borrower location of the prospective borrower. This can be done in a variety of ways, as noted above.
  • the lender determines a purchase history of the prospective borrower. The purchase history may include previous purchase transactions made by the borrower at the particular borrower location.
  • the lender determines an available fund amount associated with the prospective borrower.
  • This fund amount may be an amount of available, usable funds with which the borrower may make purchases.
  • the lender extends an offer to use the available fund amount to the prospective borrower based upon the prospective borrower location.
  • the lender simply notifies the borrower, upon determining the borrower location, that a certain amount of funds are available for use for purchases. This notification may optionally include suggested goods or services available for purchase at the borrower's location.
  • FIG. 5 illustrated therein is an alternate embodiment of a method 500 of extending credit in accordance with the invention.
  • the method of FIG. 5 is particularly well suited for short-term, “payday” loans, in which a borrower receives a loan in the form of a cash advance. When the borrower receives a paycheck, the lender collects the borrowed money, plus any interest and fees.
  • the prospective borrower's prospective borrower location is determined as described above.
  • an expected income event associated with the prospective borrower is detected.
  • a prospective lender may query the prospective borrower's bank or financial institution to determine whether a direct deposit check is expected for deposit within the next few days.
  • the lender may contact the prospective borrower's employer to determine whether the borrower is to be paid within the next two weeks.
  • the lender may check the credit worthiness of the borrower at step 503 . Where an income event is expected, and the borrower is credit worthy, the lender extends an offer of credit to the borrower at step 504 . Where the borrower chooses to accept the offer, the lender receives this acceptance at step 505 . The lender may then fund the account, which is accessible to the borrower, at step 506 .
